2.5 sessions total for a full track day, best of 1.04.77 on the clubman circuit. . . . . . . time attributed to my fast emptying wallet. . . . . :laugh:

Was good to see a lot of familar faces out there though. I shall be back!

Glen, so what were your times for the day?? How did the car feel compared to the GTR??

pete, i think he was about 1-2 seconds off his gtr time... the integra is quite a nifty package.

i take it ur the man who wrote a little 'message' on his windscreen? :laugh:

you would be correct haha, a little tongue in cheek... don't get me wrong. they are a sweet car, it's the instant status some think they attain by driving one.

and what da fark were you driving?? lol

<--- see there. not really that quick, just quicker than some... it's a little friendly rivalry.

not bad for a first timer eh ;)

Sprint - 1:06:xx (one sec behind my GTR)

Clubman - 1:09:xx (match my GTR)

pretty happy with the times considering its not too far off from my previous GTR. Had shitty tyres on so i was pretty much sliding around the corners :thumbsup:

i need semis :whistling:

God I slept well. I was torched after the day. If any one from here took any photos, it would be good to see them posted up.

I glazed my front discs. They somewhat resembled titanium discs, lol, if there was such a thing. Went and had them cut again this morning but still squealing a little when coming to a stop. Checked the brake pads also but no heat cracks and still a lot of pad there. Time for a set of slotted and cross drilled, to see if they make a difference. Also now in the market for a decent oil cooler and remote oil filter package.

I'll work on getting pics & vids up over the weekend - I drove in the morning so got a few decent skyline pics - didn't get one of the fuel pump sled down pit lane though :)

I tell you what, he was very lucky there was no fire created from that. Especially when he did realise what had happened and he got out of his car to spray it with his extinguisher and it didnt work. Very luck indeed.....

Hmm, pretty good times. Talk about semi's. I'd love to have some for the next track day. I am hoping the wife will release strangle hold on my proverbials so I can make it to the next one. Mind you, having 2 little people in the family does make life much more hectic.

Warwick has no such problems :kiss:

Get in quick Pete. Paul said that spots are being booked rather quickly.....

I wish I could say I had as much fun as everyone else but I had nothing but problems. I have to give a big thank you to GTRgeoff, he helped me out by donating some hose from his own car. Thanks heaps mate :P . Here are some photos.

    • Seat of the pants assessment of the new intake: The car is way less "doughy" when hitting the loud pedal, especially off idle when stopped or in traffic, I did use a cheapo lazer thermal thingo to measure the temp around where the pod filter got its air, it was between 55 - 60°C, in saying this the car was shut off and not moving, so the OEM intake pipe was not supplying any fresh air to where the pod was when the car was at least moving A weird bonus was induction noise on the throttle in the cabin increased a bit,  I was worried that I was actually going to lose some of that induction noise I love so much, outside though, when I got the daughter to do a WOT drive by pass for me, the induction noise has increased alot when on the throttle, not quite ITB doort, but well up there I'm extremely happy with the results and have been exploring the country roads in the region  As for house mods: 1.New front fence is up and is awesome, it really upgraded how the joint looks from the street, and the added security is nice 2. Electricians have replace some interior lights, and with more lighting in the garage, a few new motion detecting lights out the front above the garage, front room, and at the front door, which I have already found heaps helpful coming and going, also now has fancy pants CCTV all round the house The only hold point for power though is the solar and batteries due to supply issues, although this will happen over the next few weeks 3. I have done a heap of landscaping out the front and I'm almost ready to do a new small retaining wall with some nice blocks to replace the brick and cemented in rocks around the raised garden beds cemented in river stone "was the fashion at the time" the house was built. I currently have a pallet of retaining wall blocks and 2 bulka bags of 20mm blue metal to replace the wood chip that is in the raised garden beds around the house 4. I now have 3 big raised garden beds for out the back to grow some vegetables, about 70cm high, 200cm long and 100cm wide 5. My 2 compost bins are already pretty full with brown, green and kitchen waste from the landscaping I'vedone so far, but they will probably take a few months to break down, so anything else that gets chopped, trimmed, and kitchen waste will just start filling the base of the raised garden beds to about 30cm before I start throwing 40cm of good compost, and stuff, for the vegetables to grow in, I'll need a few ton of compost and soil, but the local supplier can sent me bulka bags of the stuff Basically the logs, wood chips and a few strategically placed rocks for drainage, will give the beds some good organic materials down low to break down over time, and they will hold moisture during the warmer months to save the water in my big arse water tank if we don't get alot of rain So, all in all, the car and house mods are going well, and I'm really enjoying being retired, I sleep in too 0700 and slowly plod around inside until I feel like actually doing anything, and only work in the yard for as long as want, which has actually been alot over the last few weeks,  although when you look at it, it seems that not a huge amount of work has been done,  until I look at the before I started the work pics Happy days and good times indeed 
    • hahaha yeah. Plan is to get side skirts and probably just rear pods. But going to do them one-by-one. I've got a set that I really like from RHDJapen, but that one isn't shipped to AU. So need to find someone who can get it for me
    • Here's an idea, answer the questions I asked you as they are trying to work out WHY the LSD will be binding up in a straight line.
    • You haven't driven many modern cars then have you? Most of them have sfa steering feel with their stupid electric bullshit steering systems.
